11yrs and Finally getting the car done...
After 11 years I will have the mustang on the road... I should be able to start the engine this weekend some before during and after shots... for your enjoyment... and because its so dead in here.....
Before- out of a barn from a 20 year rest..

yea, it is now a 289..it was pretty easy swap, I found a 65 coupe that sheetmetal was cut up to restore and then the car was left to rust with its fresh engine, so I swapped the drivetrain in to the 66.. and all new v8 steering/ suspension, proper fuel line, ect. so now aside from the vin, you can no longer tell it was a sixxer...
